No study has been found in which kinesiology taping, mobilization and breathing exercises were used regarding postoperative pain and postpartum comfort after cesarean section. This study aims to determine the effects of kinesiology taping, mobilization and breathing exercise on post-cesarean section pain and postpartum comfort. The study will be conducted with three groups, two intervention groups and one control group. It has been calculated that a minimum of 33 people in each group and 99 people in total will be sufficient. Anticipating the possibility of data loss in the study, it was planned to include 15% more patients (n = 114). Research Questions Is there a difference in terms of pain between the groups that received kinesiology taping, mobilization training and breathing exercises after cesarean section and those that did not? Is there a difference in postpartum comfort level between the groups that received kinesiology taping, mobilization training and breathing exercises after cesarean section and those that did not? Is there a difference in terms of pain between groups with and without post-cesarean mobilization training and breathing exercise? Is there a difference in postpartum comfort level between groups with and without post-cesarean mobilization training and breathing exercise?
The U.S. registered nurse (RN) workforce is the largest in the Healthcare and Social Assistance Sector and is at high risk for injuries and errors due to poor sleep and fatigue. Shift work (i.e., nights, evenings, rotating shifts) can contribute to RNs not obtaining adequate, restful sleep. Work intensity, including heavy physical and emotional workloads of caring for critically ill patients, can contribute to job stress, resulting in spill-over effects at home when RNs experience difficulties falling and staying asleep. To address work and home sleep barriers, this project proposes the development and pilot testing of RN-SLEEP, a skill-building mobile application designed to improve sleep. RN-SLEEP will provide a convenient, flexible space to learn sleep-enhancing evidence-based shift work-specific strategies, and cognitive-behavioral methods, (e.g., goal setting, relaxation training). Using NIOSH's Research 2 Practice (R2P) approach, the study team will collaborate with participants (N=18-24) from an RN union to refine RN-SLEEP content, integrating current sleep literature (including National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health [NIOSH] material) with cognitive-behavioral based training. RN-SLEEP will be pilot-tested using a two-group pretest-posttest study design, comparing sleep outcome measures (duration, quality) of RN-SLEEP participant users (n=38) with participants from an education control group (n=38). Data trends on fatigue, what drives behavior change (beliefs and self-efficacy), and other sleep outcome measures (timing, regularity, efficiency, daytime sleepiness) will be explored. RN-SLEEP goals align with Healthy People 2030, NIOSH's strategic goal to promote safe and healthy work design and well-being through two NIOSH Healthcare and Social Assistance Sector/Healthy Work Design Cross-Sector (HCSA/HWD) intermediate goals. HWD goal 7.2A is to conduct intervention research addressing fatigue (poor sleep sequela) due to suboptimal work designs (shift work) in the healthcare industry. HCSA/HWD goal 7.12A prioritizes interventions designed to impact work and non-work contributors to safety and health. This RN-SLEEP intervention aims to improve sleep by building skills that help RNs overcome obstacles to sleep from work and home, thus improving health and safety. Immediate outputs include a mobile app, designed and tested in collaboration with RNs, to improve sleep. Study results will be disseminated through our union collaborators, nursing conferences and journal publications, and our University's NIOSH-sponsored Education and Research Center social media outlets. Intermediate outcomes include enhancing RN sleep through training rarely available in nursing schools and traditional hospital health and safety training programs. Improving sleep can reduce fatigue and may decrease occupational injuries and errors. RN-SLEEP is adaptable, where future versions could be modified to meet the needs of other HCSA workers (i.e., nursing aides) and workers in other industries (e.g., oil and gas) scheduled to work non-standard work hours. End outcomes include integrating RN-SLEEP into a broader hospital organization intervention to mitigate fatigue risks.
Purpose: The aims of the research are to determine the effects of individual trainings on family planning given to migrant women (Ahıska Turks), repetitive trainings via mobile applications, telephone counseling initiatives on women's health responsibility levels, family planning knowledge and attitudes. Design: This pretest-posttest is an interventional quasi-experimental research. Method: Standard protocol Items: Recommendations for Interventional Trials (SPIRIT) Statement 2013 checklist is used in this study. The CONSORT (Consolidated Standards of Reporting Trials) flowchart is used in this protocol. This study will be carried out with immigrant (Ahıska Turks) women between the ages of 15-49 who are registered in Üzümlü Family Health Center in Üzümlü district of Erzincan province. In this study, individual training on family planning and health responsibility, repetitive training via mobile application and telephone counseling initiatives will be made. The same applications will be applied to the control group after the study data is collected. Hypotheses: H1: Mobile applications for family planning, telephone counseling and individual training have an impact on the family planning attitudes of immigrant women. H1: Mobile applications for family planning, telephone counseling and individual trainings have an impact on the family planning knowledge level of immigrant women. H1: Mobile applications, telephone counseling and individual trainings for health responsibility have an impact on the level of health responsibility of migrant women.
The implementation of palliative care has been started in Indonesia since 2007. This was declared by Ministry of health regulation (SK Menkes no 812/Menkes/SK/2007). However, there has been a slow development in palliative care compared to other Asian countries. One of the reasons is the lack of knowledge and skills among health care professionals in Indonesia. Primary Heath Center (PHC) is at the frontline in the health care system in Indonesia to provide care for patients. Its function is especially important in the Universal Health Coverage era. Studies have shown that PHC's nurses' knowledge on palliative care is still limited since the integration of palliative care into the nursing curriculum just started 2-3 years ago. Also, this curriculum integration is still limited in some Universities. Continuing nursing education (CNE) is one of the ways to enhance nurses' knowledge and skills. CNE for palliative care in Indonesian training programs has not been structurally established yet. It is fragmented in its application into some areas and has not been applied for the majority of areas in Indonesia. Investigators aim to develop a palliative care training for PHC nurses using an online format. It will be done in several steps. Firstly, investigators are starting by conducting a review to collect information on what topics are suitable for PHC nurses. Secondly, investigators are developing modules and other educational tools (a virtual education package). Thirdly, those educational packages will be then evaluated by experts. Next, the education package will be integrated into eLOK (e-learning: open for knowledge sharing) at Universitas Gadjah Mada. After that, training for PHC nurses in Yogyakarta using eLOK will be conducted under the acronym: SPARK or Strengthening PAlliative caRe in the community by enhancing nurses' Knowledge (Sinau PAliatif Rame-rame karo eLOK). The effectiveness of SPARK will be measured with a Randomized Control Trial. Investigators will also collect more information on the feasibility of this program using qualitative data collection since investigators expect to refine this program to be applied in a larger area in Indonesia.
